75mm lens witha 8x10 camera.

[Robert Brummitt]

I have a 75mm lens that I had for a long time but now work with a 8x10 Deardroff with a 4x5 reduction back. My question is. Can I use the lens with the camera or should I should I sell it? The lens not the camera.

I answered tis somewhere else

75mm will be fine with your reducing back.

Good point Ole, on the other site his header said 90mm which would be less of a problem.

And the back can slide forward so the bed isn't in the picture.

You will probably need a recessed lens board for your Deardorff for the 75. Emile/www.deleon-ulf.com.
